I like the video you had made for tumblr. I had wanted to ask, after your diagnosis, if you felt discomfort when looking at criteria and descriptions of ASD? At this time being, it does induce a strong feeling of discomfort for a unknown reason. I was diagnosed December 2012. Sorry to ask anonymously.

About the blog

Hi, my name is Zack. I run this advice blog through my personal. I made this blog purely to help absolutely anyone that needs help and/or advice; but specifically those with or affected by any form of the Spectrum. I personally have severe Asperger's Syndrome, though it may not always seem like it. That is because I absolutely obsessed about fitting in before I knew I had Asperger's. By obsessing I mean I spent every second of every day for 5 years, 13-18, practicing socialization with anyone willing to talk to me. I even would just sit there in public and people watch to study their body language and mannerisms so I could copy it. Now I seem like I no longer have it. And I deeply regret it. It's the only thing I regret in my entire life. Society and socialization is not worth understanding. I want to -- no I will make a difference in the world and change the world's perception and understand of Autism. Nothing stopped me before when I went against nature in becoming who I am now, and nothing will stop me now. I do not consider myself anything special, honestly. Like Einstein said,
"I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious."

I’m glad you liked the video! I felt discomfort in some areas, but mostly what they said was spot on about me. But we call won’t fit the requirements perfectly, that’s why there is 5 different types of Autism on the spectrum. What are you specifically talking about criteria wise that makes you uncomfortable? If I knew that maybe I could better answer your question. It’s no problem if you wish to stay anon that is your choice completely :)
